What happens when you commit to practicing self-compassion for 30 days? In this gentle, insightful read, we explore how small daily shifts in how you speak to and care for yourself can create a powerful ripple effect. Whether you're navigating burnout, a breakup, or just feeling a little lost, this 30-day self-compassion challenge helps you come back home to yourself—with more clarity, confidence, and peace.

Let’s be real: dating today isn’t exactly a walk in the park. Between ghosting, endless swiping, and trying to decode whether “I’m not looking for anything serious” actually means “but I’ll still act like your boyfriend,” it’s easy to feel like your confidence takes a hit.

Have you ever found yourself asking, “Why am I attracted to emotionally unavailable partners?” You're not alone—and you're certainly not broken.

If you're questioning whether it's time to end your situationship, you're not alone. There are key signs to look for. First, if the chemistry is strong but core values and respect are lacking, the connection may be surface-level. Second, if you’re left in the dark about the future, with vague or no answers, it's a major red flag. Lastly, if plans are always last-minute and never involve intentional dates, it signals you're not being prioritized. Don’t settle for crumbs—trust your instincts, and make room for a relationship where both people are invested. You deserve clarity, respect, and a love that meets your needs.

I'm joined by Rebecca Marcus, LCSW, to discuss why we find ourselves in unhealthy dating patterns and how to stop.
